Discussion
Delivery before the deadline and super satisfying gameplay control, highly recommended!
Well constructed and great product for the price. nice touch to the buttons. only used it for cuphead, no fighting games yet, but as far as i understood it came pre configured with all neutral socd. didn't need to mess with the configuration.
I absolutely love this controller. everything about it is so good. the buttons are silky smooth, the size of the controller is perfect, and i love that the programming inside is open source and community supported. playing has been so fun, there’s definitely a learning curve though and it will make you learn how to execute your inputs better. but i am loving this. i cannot wait to customize this with my own art. i already added new switches to it and it sounds so thocky and pleasant now! amazing product. my only problems were that the shipping was a bit long and also the price of this kept fluctuating back and fourth about 10 dollars or so.
Very satisfying to hold, I can easily take it anywhere, it's highly responsive, durable, and comes with a tool to replace the buttons. As for the size, it was very comfortable for me, but people with larger hands may find it a bit odd, though it's not a big issue since the buttons are large and well-spaced as much as possible. Great entry-level model.
